#11 370 Elvas Tower 1967   Date: 02/06/07 15:37 Re: More SP oldies but goodies Part 2 Author: WAF The F and the UP SD40s, if the year is indeed 1967, is the earliest record of the UP-SP power pool I have seen. A very rare photo
Date: 02/06/07 15:43 Re: More SP oldies but goodies Part 2 Author: SP6190 It could be 1968. It doesn't have a date on it, but it was in with the 67 stuff.
Date: 02/06/07 15:56 Re: More SP oldies but goodies Part 2 Author: WAF The first actually written record of UP-SP pooling on a regular basis is the fall of 1968 per Sacramento Div East End train order books. I read somewhere that the pool began in May, 1968, so 1968 would be more correct rather than 1967 unless it was an experiment

Thanks, garrett Date: 02/06/07 16:28 Re: More SP oldies but goodies Part 2 Author: topper SP6190 Wrote:
